    Golota is a quitter, no way does he win a title ever! you forgot to add McCall up there but Holyfield has the most likely chance here.
    Come on you all Golota hasnt even won a world title yet, he got owned in his biggest fights, watch the man fall apart again soon.

    Like already mentioned, most of the guys weren't that good to begin with and those that were ( Oldyfield ) are so over the hill, it's not even funny. end of story. None of those guys has ANY chance to get a belt in a legit fight.

    I think Holyfield maybe winning some titles in his later career.

    Holyfield has a chance at beating Ibragimov, but I don't believe Golota could beat any of the current belt holders, though he might get a shot.

    The sad truth is, any one of these has beens, never weres, and never had a chances could seriously contend right now because of the barren waste land that the heavyweights have become.If shannon Briggs could win a belt, I'd think just about anybody could.

    holyfield could win a belt...so can the bull...i dont see the obsession with the pole.....he never done a thing but batter bowe in foul filled fights and shrivel up against tyson and lewis......if he coulda gone to see the wizard with dorothy, he coulda got a heart and courage before the lion and the tin man and really been a contender...

    Where is TUA in this poll? He is younger than all of them - but
    definitely on the comeback.

    Golota seems to be doing pretty well. Holyfield looked pretty good in his comeback. Sanders is not willing to work hard enough in the gym for his comeback.

    I voted for Sanders, but i really don't think any of them have a decent shot...
